| Description of the problem | This is the third car i own, my first two cars were honda and now i am currently driving a 2018 jeep compass. I have been driving this car since august, on 2/26/19 around 1:30pm i was driving for about 2 minutes when i stopped at a red light and my automatic stop/start turned my car off, i pressed the button and my car started again normally. As the light turned green i moved my foot from the break to the gas and my car did not move. I pressed the auto again and i still did not move, continued to put my car in park and nothing would work. I had to restart my car twice before it would move. This all happened while at a green light with cars behind me. On 2/27/19 at 2:45pm i started my car and while i was still driving pressed the auto stop/start, i get about 200 feet further before my car starts slowing down on its own and shut off. I waited some time before restarting my car. On 3/1/19 at 2:30pm i did not have auto stop/start on, i was driving for some time and my car started to slow down again so i pushed on the gas to accelerate, it would not accelerate and i was able to pull over to the side when my car came to a stop on its own and the emergency break light came on on its own. I waited some time again before restarting my car. I do not feel safe driving this car as it is dangerous to just stop on its own. ** please note the vehicle has approximately 2965 miles on it as of 3/2/19 * |
